The Saginaw County Sheriff Bill Federspiel said officials received a 911 call from someone at the hotel. Deputies arrived less than two minutes later and found 51-year-old Valarie Denice Wright, from Saginaw Township, shot in the chest.

She was taken to the hospital where she died from her injuries.

Now Troy Lee Wright, 52, also from Saginaw Township, has been charged in her death.

He is facing six separate counts including homicide-open murder, felony firearm, and armed robbery.
